Mr.. OBrien said In his recent New
York speech that nothing would help
Ireland like full purse and he then
made strong appeal to American
generosity as means of keeping the
purse full. America does not seem
to have at any time been niggardly
toward Ireland's cause, but as for
keeping the purse full, that is quite
another thing, there are too many
leaders to make rich by Americas
generosity to hope that the purse can
be kept full.

ST REMEMBER" SAID THE DOCTOR,
zone year in We olden times that the
ladies were going to give a Christmas
festival. l had quite a reputation in
those days as a Nimrod, and my fame
had spread abro ad and reached the
ears of the good ladies, several of them
called on me with request that | should
furnish the turkeys on this occasion.
Promptly at the appointed time L APP
peared, bearing with me a dozen OF as
fine birds as ever spread wings. The
ladies were very profuse in thanks, and
complimented me very highly on my
saying word, and allowed
them to carry away the turkeys
and the impression that I had winged
them in flight. 1t is said that conscience
makes towards of us ALL Certainly it
made one of me, for in little while l
went back to the ladies and told them
l wished to throw myself on
their mercy. They did not un-
derstand what 1 meant, but
they soon did when i whispered to
them, in husky voice, that the birds l
gave them L had gambled for. 1t so
happened that the pastor of our church
was great hunter, so he ruled turkey

though one of the stage drivers in the
mploy of our company persisted in
going ahead the morning following
my arrival. The Indians inter-
cepted him while he was cross
ing the river and killed him
and captured the stage. For
many weeks afterwards the Indians ran
a stage line of their own, and seemed to
derive a great deal of sport out of the
enterprise. Subsequently it was aScer-
tanned that a band of Indians, $50 strong,
were concealed a short distance from

LOCAL MENTION.
Shoes for Masculine Feet.

When the average male biped goes
into store to buy a pair of shoes, he
asks simply for what he wants and the
price; if the latter is satisfactory, he
tries them on; if they come anywhere
near fit, he pays for them, has his old
ones wrapped up, and goes on his way
without further ado. Now, with the
average woman - but this article
refers to mems wear, which Treat Bros,
at 2S East Third, handle exclusively; an
entirely new feature in st. Paul retail
trade. This firm carries perhaps the
finest line of mems foot wear i'll the
city, including slippers and rub
h. goods. In slippers they
show some decidedly elegant, stylish
makes. They import direct from Paris
a line of Henry Herth'S celebrated con-
gresS and button shoes, and from Lon
don Waukenphast & Co.'s street shoes.
There is hardly manufacturer in the
world of any particular note that is not
represented in their stock. These gen
tlemen came from Boston few months
since. where they became experienced
in this line. They have been fairly sue
cessful in establishing trade here in
mems wear. A man can get exactly
what he wants in their place, at reason
able price. Fine and medium American
makes are a great speciality, and are
more popular than the imported article.

Business Chances.

Men with business ability, of good
character and some money can always
find openings. Why? Now there are
three good openings for good business
man at my disposal: the first must be a
man of business worth from $4,000
to $50, 600; he must be worker, in fact.
a clean-cut business man to step in as
managing officer in one of the best es-
tablished woodworking concerns in the
Northwest; his home can be in st. Paul.
Two other openings are for good estab-
lished businesses forty to fifty miles
from st. Paul, say $4,000 wanted each
place. Four young men could care for
these. Wealth, with the want of help,
makes these openings. Such was the
talk George III. Hazard, the real estate
man, gave US. Communicate with him.
His Office is in the National German
American Bank building, st. Paul.

Mr.. ROhrer, William B. Branch and
some others. whose names l no longer
remember. Each year we had an an
nual Christmas shooting out at the Half
way house, on the old st. Anthony road.
Joe Campbell kept the house and fur
nished the game to be shot for. Each
one had to pay certain entrance fee.
Army men from the fort and sporting
men from Minneapolis would usually be
in attendance at these shooting
matches. Sometimes the chickens were
tied to the ground, and we peppered
away at them as they wabbled about
trying to eXtricate themselves. Some
times we placed chicken in box with
his head showing above the top and his
body entirely concealed within. He
was considered an excellent shot who
knocked the head off the chicken, and
he was rewarded for his skill by being
permitted
TO BEAR THE HEADLESS FOWL
home in triumph. Each one aimed
high so as to either hit the head or go
above it. The unfortunate fellow who
thoughtlessly, or from defective vision,
sent bullet crashing through the box
and also through the chickens carcass,
forfeited the price of the fowl, which I
believe was 50 cents. OF course such
one must bear the good-natured ridi-
cule of the assembled SpOrtSmen.
Occasionally for devilment some joker
would manage to put into the box, I'M

land 1 guess not until

Old-time Christmases. But let me tell
you Just one word on the philosophy of
Christmas memories. To get the valu-
able literature on the subject of past
ChriStmaSeS you must meet and talk
with men who live upon the heights
The common mind does not dwell on the
delights of Christmas in their highest
sense. Ask the common man for remin-
iscenceS OF Christmas passed score of
years ago, and he will tell you of some
foot he went on with the boys. That
is no part of Christmas remin-
iscence. 1t is merely an in
cident. The Christmas spirit should
be elevated, refined, above the
might reach it; few do Men rest from
their work, enjoy the holiday and go to
bed. Is that all there should be in a
Christmas day? Far from it. The
spirit should commune with itself. The
incense of a holy day should float over
the whole life and leave the soul more
pure and sanctified. Stories of Christ
mas day should be far above the ordi-
nary narration of eventS-something
ethereal, blessed, sacred, and outside the
mere incidents that perchance may
stamp themselves upon the memory in
passing. This is my philosophy"

Progress in Heating Apparatu.

Progress in Heating Apparatus.
AS great an effort is being made, per-
haps, in the improvement of apparatus
for heating rooms and buildings, as in
any other direction. Stoves are in use
to-day that, in the words of an Irish
man, do everything themselves but
furnish the fuel and talk" On another
page will be found cut illustrating the
plan of the great Mahoney heater. This
heater seems to have solved the prob
lem of perfection in regulating temper
atIre in a building. 1t is simple but eff
fective, and will doubtless become uni
versally used as soon as it is sufficiently
well known. j. j. Dunnigan, at 800
East Seventh street, has one of them in
constant operation, and invites anybody
who may be interested to call in and
see it. Mr.. Dunnigan has made the
subject of heating study for many
years, and is competent, if any one is, to
Judge of the merits of an invention.

partner in the American Fur COM
pa Y, and the district over which l
mad control extended from Lake Pepin
TO the British boundary and west to the
heads of the streams which are tribu-

Naturally, the business in which was
engaged brought me in very close re-
lationship with the Indians who
abOunded in that region, the tribes being
the DacotahS or Sioux. 1t was an an
nual custom of mine at New Years to
distribute presents among the Indians
in the vicinity of the trading post,
and my store house at MENDOZA,
the first private residence in Min
nesota, was the place where the
distribution of the gifts occurred. No
idea of locking up my house ever en-

called they merely pushed open the
door and walked into my apartment.
